Rezension zu „Sarah Thornhill “
"* 'I was thrilled to find myself back beside the river I'd come to know so well in The Secret River. The power with which Kate Grenville evokes places and people is so remarkable that I could remember the smell of the air there - and it was no surprise to discover that Sarah Thornhill's story is as gripping and illuminating as her father's was' - Diana Athill * 'Grenville inhabits characters with a rare completeness... She writes with a poet's sense of rhythm and imagery' - Guardian * 'Here is someone who can really write' - Peter Carey"
